Fancied some retro action on my 3DS yesterday, so I bought the following.
Mario Tennis (GBC) was 50% off using the MyNintendo rewards, so £2.49 including the 25 gold points I had to use to get the offer. Loving it so far, one championship down and level 6.
Sonic 2 and Triple Trouble were £3.85 each via ShopTo instant codes, normally £4.49 each on the eShop. Already had Sonic 1, not sure I've played either of these before.

Bug Fables! Looking forward to starting this 😊
Also picked up Night Trap and Cosmic Star Heroine on sale. I've already finished CSH on Vita but I have a feeling it'll be even better on Switch so I'm happy to play it again.

Not perfect, but I think I've done mine. I've tried not to have loads of the same series, so only one Shining Force, 2 Sonics etc, only included more than 1 if they're different enough
Top 20 are more or less in order, the rest are more stream of consciousness, but the towards the bottom would be down the bottom (like Crysis 3 for example, I like that game a lot, I've probably played 100 better games)
1 Streets of Rage 2
2 Metal Slug
3 Panzer Dragoon Saga
4 Shining Force 3
5 Garou Mark of the Wolves
6 Witcher 3
7 House of the Dead 2
8 The World Ends With You
9 Dragon Quest V
10 Football Manager
11 Capcom vs SNK 2
12 Sensible Soccer
13 Divinity Original Sin 2
14 Witcher 2
15 Yakuza 2
16 Grandia
17 Gunstar Heroes
18 Chrono Trigger
19 Nier Automata
20 To The Moon

Got these in the post, to be honest I was going through my GC, Wii and Wii U collection over the weekend and realised there’s so many games I traded or didn’t get, hopefully with the switch I won’t make that mistake.
Going to get a game each payday..

I struggled to come up with 50 at first, so I personally feel like 100 would end up with me scraping the barrel and throwing stuff in for the sake of it. That being said, I ended up with 50-something and had to whittle it down, so I'm good with that. Obviously there's gonna be games I've completely forgotten about, but like others I've tried to keep it to one game in a series, unless the different titles are different enough to warrant more than one entry (Ass Creed). The only changes to this are games where the series is so similar across the board that it becomes redundant to pick one (ie Layton), or I need to include the whole series as singular experience (ie Mass Effect).
Also, several levels of organisation here. Manufacturer, System, Alphabetical Games. No way I could put these in a specific order.

Not sure how interesting this will be for people but I was going through some game tubs to see if anything leapt out for the top 100 when I found these
Back when I used to get stuff to review this is what the discs looked like. 360 you'd generally get full sized cases, Playstation you'd get jewel cases and white/red discs. I only got a couple of PS2 games but they were silver and blue. I got a couple of Wii games too, they were just the game disc in a plain white box from what I had
Pictured; the enjoyable Dynasty Warriors Gundam 2, the genuinely bad PS3 version of Risen 3 (it was so bad), to make up for it Street Fighter 4 and Persona 3 FES

My Evercade Limited Edition arrived yesterday, with collector's coin and carry case for ordering through Funstock.
Premium pack came with three cartridges, but I went all-in and ordered the Technos collection too.
Can't wait for the Atari Lynx carts due later this year.

Spent around 4ish hours with this, I'm quite enjoying it so far.
The games made by Tripwire and published by Deep Silver and they've billed it as a shaRk PG (very clever)... I don't know how much RPG there is in there but there's upgrades and the like.
You start the the game tutorial as a full grown female Bull Shark where you're shown the ropes as games do nowadays, and pretty rapidly you meet Scaly Pete
(or murdering scumbag if you prefer) who basically kills you... but not before finding out you're pregnant and chucking the baby back in, this becomes you.
so, the game begins proper with you as a pup, leveling up actually adds to your age and thus, you grow.
Completing tasks and finding collectables rewards you with evolutionary features that aren't quite realistic... I have electric teeth at the minute.😆
Combat is simplistic but enjoyable enough, trying to take out boats is a little messy but I can forgive that... it feels like it may get a little samey but we'll see.

I'm not entirely sure how to word this without inflaming the situation, and I'm not entirely sure what to do about it either. We could delete and ban all Final Fantasy talk but that's ludicrous, not going to happen, it might work but it's too pathetic
But what to do? I'm sick of hearing people complain about others, if you don't like them put them on ignore and don't engage. People lording it over others or people feeling they're being lorded over. People being abusive to other members. People just generally being dicks.
I remember when I didn't actively hate Final Fantasy, it was about 5 weeks ago, and it's not entirely Aerith to blame. I don't want to read the Final Fantasy threads but I have to because there's an argument every few days in them
Stop being pricks about Final Fantasy (of all things) or I will do something and it won't be fair, I won't like it, but it'll come to the point where doing something is better than nothing

I got sent Etrian Odyssey Untold 2 to review years ago as a download code. Loved it, they're fantastic games, but I don't own any of the Etrian Odyssey games physically, so I thought I'd sort that while this was going cheap

Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling is an absolutely delightful RPG inspired by Paper Mario.
It's an indie title developed by Moonsprout Games (who I have never heard of) and has been on Steam since November last year, and has just come to Switch, PS4, and Xbone.
I've put around 5 and a half hours into and am really enjoying myself. I'll write more later, but I'm struggling to type right now.

I very briefly tried some of this yesterday on PC. I will say you can tell that this is a 8 year old game, especially by how its graphics menu operates. You can't set rendering resolutions in game, you do it via the launcher in 'environment settings'. Which actually doesn't set the rendering resolution at all, you have to edit a configuration JSON in the documents folder. Which doesn't always work.
It also doesn't run super well in the lobby. I have a 9700k and it constantly hitches when there are players getting loaded in, it runs on DX9 or something. Also when I loaded a main mission the game crashed immediately.
However when it worked it seemed semi interesting. It's more of a hack and slash MMO than what I usually play. The first boss is an 'attack the weak spot' affair and you time button presses to do extra damage or whatever. You eat healing items, so I think everyone is a DPS in this game basically. I've yet to do a group mission (I need to be level 5). I want to at least do a few of those.
I've a lot of time off due to COVID cost saving measures so I hope to actually put a decent dent into this at some point. Someone on ResetEra tells me you really need to stick with it until level 40 to see what it's about, so lets see about that I guess.
I think this is on Xbox now as well. If you want to try it on PC you have to chance your Windows region first to US to find it on the windows store.
(I could not find an existing topic for this)

So here's a list, both old and new, and with a few more than 100 (when I've put a series rather than individual titles, but noted such). Weird one is FIFA which I've played since MD days, to pick just 1 version....
So I'm not saying they are the best 100, just ones with fond memories of the time/platform.

Partner is playing Animal Crossing a lot and keeps complaining about how uncomfortable the Switch is to use for a long periods so giving these a go since they were on offer. Might make me more willing to play the Switch too if they feel good.

This is this month's PS+ game. Its been on my Switch list but I'll have it here for now.
It's been a good, chill game to play at during these times and I reckon I can do better than those that run things now. Its kinda cathartic. Yeah, my first attempt I fucked up the water lines and poisoned everyone but it's a learning process...
I've built a fairly well functioning city. Its a modest little place but everyone's happy and healthy. It's bustling and pretty green; it's nice. I've bought up some more land to expand but I need more money to build. I could really do with a university as occasionally a place goes out of business due to my undereducated population. But industry keeps complaining when I tax the dirty, polluting fucks. Maybe they're just mad because there was a point their building kept burning down and fire engines couldn't get to them because of my incremental and patchy expansion. It is a bit of a mess.
But my next section will be city planning perfection.

I watch a YouTuber called VaatiVidya, he does really cool lore videos for Demons/Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Sekiro, and he just put out this pretty awesome picture.
It incorporates elements from all of those games into a big mashup, and mine arrived the other day!
